I envy you your cooler weather. Of course, I don't say that in January. :-)

Our houses here are not build to keep the heat out, but to keep the heat in. Average daytime temperature this time of year is 21-23C.
It's slowly cooling down now, it's 11pm and it's still 31C. That's in the city center. The official local temperature is 22C, but that's outside of the city, in a field (and during the day in the shade). At least it was a dry heat, normally when it's hot in the Netherlands it's get humid.
My bedroom is either 29.9C or 28.5C. I got two thermometers about 15cm apart. I'm going to believe the lower reading. Because almost 30C is just too hot for a bedroom to be. Plus that thermometer is the new one, a couple of years old, the other one is almost 20 years old.
I'm sitting here, in front of my fan, waiting for it to get cooler outside than inside so I can open up the windows. I'm certain I won't get much (good) sleep tonight.
Tomorrow it's going to be 28C, but a lot more humid. In the late afternoon and evening the chance of thunderstorms seems to be rising by the hour, so hopefully that will freshen things up, though it'll take a couple of days for the house to cool down. So I'm expecting another couple of nights of too warm bedroom temperatures.
